[quote=Anonymous]Wow.  Congratulations!

That's a lot of babies, and a lot of work (I'm a mom of twins) so you will need a top notch nanny.

Where are you?  If you're in the DC area you probably need to plan for at least a $25/hr rate to get the level of experience and skill you will want (and perhaps more depending on the number of hours, level of experience you want, whether or not any of the babies may need specialized care, etc...)  But splitting the costs ought to make that feasible.

How to split the costs is probably a more personal decision given that you're sisters but that may also make it easier.  I think the twin parent should pay more, but maybe the twin parent would also be the host location (which has some advantages) so perhaps that levels the costs a bit as all the wear and tear and extra gear will be on that house.

How wonderful for the kids to grow up together like this though!

Re finding a nanny - I would immediately join/contact your local parents of multiples group.  They will know of nannies w/ multiples experience.  There's a strong likelihood that someone will have had triplets so might even be able to offer nannies w/ triplet experience - which would be fantastic for you.

The summer is also a great time to hire as many families will let long-term nannies go when kids start school.  So you should be well-positioned in the marketplace.

Congrats and good luck in the search![/quote]
